NHTSA Complaint #10852832 — 2011 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

MY CAR HAS 52,000 AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TELL ME THE TIMING CHAINS NEED TO BE REPLACED. REASON IS BECAUSE OF YOUR OIL CHANGE INDICATOR CAUSES YOU TO BURN TO MUCH OIL AND YOUR RUNNING YOU CAR ON LOW OIL LEVELS. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR LETS YOU GO 5,000 MILES BEFORE AN OIL CHANGE, YOU STILL SHOULD CHECK YOUR OIL LEVELS ONCE A MONTH BECAUSE YOU ARE BURNING OIL. HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO KNOW THAT. BECAUSE I FOLLOW THE OIL LIFE INDICATOR I NOW AM STUCK WITH A $3200 REPAIR BILL. CHEVY EVEN HAS A SPECIAL TECHNICAL BULLETIN ASSOCIATED WITH MY ENGINE FOR THE PROBLEM THAT EXTENDS WARRANTY COVERAGE TO 10 YEARS / 120,000 MILES BUT MY VIN NUMBER DOESN'T QUALIFY.
